| Re: Anyone heard the Primare CD31? Hi,
I own the Primare I30 and CD31 (With Monitor Audio GS-20 speakers).
When auditioning, I tried Cyrus (Very bright / forward, slightly harsh sounding), Arcam (Far too laid back, lacking punch) and finally the CD31. Smooth, relaxed, plenty of power when called upon.
I was thinking of the B&W704s to pair with this combo, like yourself. But in the end preferred the MA setup.
I really like the setup, hoping that my experimenting with room treatments bring out the best in this equipment. I've also heard great things about the MF A5 CDP. But I thought that it was better to match components...
Both are definately worth a demo.
